Living Room / Re: Just how many Hitler videos does the world need?

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 03, 2010, 12:22 AM »

i've reflected on how upsetting this could be to those whose families were affected by this man and this regime.. i'm sure there are a variety of views -- some might enjoy the mockery of the man, but i can also see some people being deeply hurt at the idea of people having fun watching this mass murderer...

anyway, maybe it's just not the best subject for making a donationcoder video..

Couldn't agree more, I am sure there are much more appropriate topics to base a DC video on.  Perhaps something that wouldn't possibly create major controversy?

Some ideas might be:

Dubbed Short Chinese Movie
Dubbed News Interview
Dubbed TV Advertisement (Perhaps one based around computing {IE: Windows vs Apple Ads})

Maybe those would be more a appropriate basis for it.

Also, Nigel, I mis-understood what Josh was requesting and after speaking with him I now understand that my old way of writing reviews is not comprehensive enough for DC.

Since taking on this constructive criticism I have found I can write a much more in-depth review which will be more appropriate and informative to the end user

So basically, it works as an easier option than using msconfig and editing that before each reboot?

General Software Discussion / Re: Software for adding subtitles to an AVI, FLV or DVD movies?

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on February 02, 2010, 03:23 PM »

Im pretty sure there is software along the same lines as Karaoke Synchronization Software, where you basically have the entire script/list of words you need in a section running under the video and you use your spacebar to sync the words to the screen, you can also do it line by line rather than word by word, for when you can't be bothered showing which word is being sung at any particular moment.  Unsure wether you can save the files as AVI as I always save these as CD+G but I shouldn't see why it wouldnt work

Does this software also cache the document you was working on (IE, auto re-load the last notepad document I had open, including all the text?) if so, I can stop having to fart around in msconfig for the software re-launches and having to save a file to my desktop to tell me what I had open before reboot.

b) if no subtitles are available at all. This means creating the subtitle file from scratch, including the timecodes. Is there a way to avoid manually typing them in?

-tranglos (February 02, 2010, 02:42 PM)

Most mainstream movies have the script copied onto websites by obsessive fans, maybe do a google search for the scripts, some are available here: Movie Scripts

This would mean you don't have to sit with the movie playing to type the script yourself, just simple copy and paste would suffice.

Now obviously this wouldnt contain time codes, but the text alone.

Taking into account all the useful comments that have been given to me, my further reviews will contain a much more evenly based approach.  I realize that this one seems biased, but being some-what new here, I am used to the way I used to do reviews, which where MORE than sufficient on other forums and media outlets.

Keep the comments coming guys as I would love to see what I can add into anything else I put onto here.

Thanks

You would note, a review is a person(s) personal opinion's of a selected product.  The above review, is MY personal experience with Opera.

Take it or leave it, it wouldn't bother me if anybody switched over to this browser to be perfectly honest

Josh, OK, if you want a couple of downfalls, please read the edited review...I felt they where UN-needed as they will not apply for 99% of users.  But seeing as you now think I merely overlooked these, I WILL add them.

Intro:

Opera Web-Browser is, in my opinion, the best option for browsing websites.  With advanced security features, speed-dial function (first page can carry up to 20 links with automatically updated images of that page).

Easy to install widgets (Opera carry a huge list of free widgets for the user to download)

Easy to change themes

Voice recognition capable

Much Much More...





Who is this app designed for:

Any security conscious users, and also anybody looking for a fully featured web-broswer that is easy to navigate, easy to figure out and easy to use.


The Good


98% of the softwares features.


The needs improvement section


I have found a few facebook applications do not work on opera, and depending on 'Thirds Party Addons' you may not be able to play on some Online Bingo websites.  Asides from that, I find no other problems with Opera.

Opera Turbo, only works when IT wants to, and when it does, has a love for showing websites in a single line, no formatting and no images...basically, until they say they have 'updated' this in an upgrade, don't use this option!

Why I think you should use this product


Because I think you deserve the best!


How does it compare to similar apps

It does not compare to other browsers, because it has so many options and is so much better, I won't even put it in the same league as browsers like Internet Explorer


Score

99.5%

*edit below*

I have not personally bought any software from this website so cannot guarantee it is legit or actually works, some of the discounts are seriously big lol (I always say, if it looks too good to be true, its probably a scam), but worth a shot eh!

Sometimes restarts the stream off its own accord, doesn't affect the listeners (1/2 second skip) but it can be irritating during a live chat show


Review

If you are looking to start up an on-line Radio Broadcast, whether it be Live or Pre-Recorded, then I would highly recommend SAM3.3.2.

All of the above desktops can be customized to have any part of the software you want in them, this is easily done by clicking the 'Window' tab and simply choosing the option.


Streaming Options (Static Relays):

MediaPoint Manager (Windows Media)
Icecast 2
P2P Streamer
VTrials
Shoutcast
Live365

Encoders:

MP3 & MP3Pro
WMA (v9)

Ogg (Vorbis)

----------------

With Voice Effects, Total Voice Control, Fully featured Equalizers for each Deck and the Voice Link, Queue History and HTML/PHP website output, you could be the star of your own radio station in the next 2 hours!

The HTML/PHP Website option can either upload direct to a FTP or be saved into your Apache folder so you can host it yourself.

Website Features:

Live Radio Link (Listen Now Button)
Requests
Buy Now (Purchase Tracks on Demand)
Playlists
And Much Much More...

All in all, i would give this software a 98% rating and recommend it to any aspiring Radio DJ.

General Software Discussion / Re: Software for Marketing Campaigns

« Last post by KynloStephen66515 on January 31, 2010, 03:03 AM »

apparently you need a web-based client to send large amounts of emails, numbering in the thousands

-1337Rabbit (January 08, 2010, 10:28 AM)

This IS possible in OE7, however I cannot remember off hand how to do it (Ill grab the link over the next few hours when I get back to my own computer)

However, the chances are, if you choose to send mass e-mail's you will likely find that 90% of them get filtered into peoples spam folders.  Some e-mail clients don't even save spam, they just auto-delete, so realistically, unless its an automated mass mailer (like the one you can use in SMF or phpBB) then people will not receive them.

and how much software do i exactly need to create a handsome newsletter or email marketing campaign?

Notepad++ & Gimp
